North Fife Skies 2010
Fife Sky from Rathillet towards Luthrie and Normans Law. This year the Skies in North Fife have been quite spectacular. Tonight though it's raining. Low pressure 1000mb 97% humidity, at least it's not cold.
Hi Peter, I've been meaning to ask for some time about the origin of the name Normans Law. Is 'law' a hill? And is there any record regarding why it was called Normans? Most interested to hear what is known of this geographical feature.

ReplyDeleteBy all accounts it means:- Hill of the Northern Man.
